A Walk in the Woods

 

With such beautiful December weather today, we decided to go for a walk in the woods. Our mission: to find and identify a woodpecker. We found much more.

A Nature Walk

 

One of our favorite parts of home schooling is frequent nature walks.

Last week, we learned about pileated woodpeckers. We suspected that there were some in Rasmussen Woods, so today we went to investigate.

We not only found many of the pileated's distinctive large oval shaped holes, we had a lot of fun and got a little muddy.
